Sveaviken Bostad AB, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, has today agreed to divest the properties Järfälla Barkarby 2:59, 2:297, and 2:298 to CBRE Investment Management (CBRE IM) on behalf of a fund sponsored by the firm. The property comprises a total of 16,874 square meters, including 350 apartments, 105 parking spaces, and commercial premises of 2,547 square meters on the ground floor. The sale is in line with the SIBS Group’s stated strategy of increasing focus on SIBS as a leading industrial producer of apartment buildings in the global market.

The property is centrally located in Barkarbystaden, Järfälla. Barkarbystaden is one of Sweden’s largest and most exciting urban development projects. It is growing into a new district with space for over 14,000 residences, thousands of jobs, educational facilities, a new hospital, hotels, commerce, services, sports, and culture. Barkarbystaden will become a future hub for public transportation in northwest Stockholm, with a new subway station, buses, commuter trains, and regional trains.

The area has been developed with a strong focus on sustainability and aims to be climate-neutral by 2030. Just like other residential projects developed by Sveaviken’s parent company SIBS, great importance has been placed on sustainability, including highly energy-efficient buildings combined with solar panels and geothermal heating. Care has also been taken in the architectural design, with varying building heights, rooftop terraces, beautifully designed inner courtyards, and attractive materials in both the facade and interior. Initially, the properties will be managed by Sveaviken Bostad.

JLL has been the transaction advisor, and Walthon Advokater has provided legal counsel to Sveaviken Bostad in the transaction.

”We are very pleased with the great interest we have received for the property and that CBRE IM is acquiring it. CBRE IM’s long-term perspective as a property investor with a strong focus on environmental and social sustainability bodes well for the future management and tenants. We are also very proud that another reputable investor confirms the quality of our sustainable properties. We look forward to continued cooperation with CBRE IM,” says Pär Thomaeus, CEO of Sveaviken Bostad.

Sveaviken Bostad estimates that the property will be transferred at the end of June.
